Recipe Mini Album

Hey everyone! I finally finished my first mini album. I ended up making it into a recipe book to store some of the recipes that I adore. A lot of the recipes are ones my mom has made through out the years that I pretty much grew up eating. There are a few other recipes in there that are hers that I've yet to try and there are some recipes that still need to be added. Over all though I am REALLY happy with how this recipe book came out. Not to mention I had a complete blast decorating it. I did not enjoy constructing the book itself, but....if I wanna decorate mini's I've first gotta put them together hahaha.



For the cover I used cardboard from an old box. Each individual page has a cardstock base that I distressed the edges of a bit and inked up. I used a few stickers from Making Memories, some Prima flowers, DCWV papers and a few other random things. A lot of the stuff is explained in the video above. Enjoy guys!

Photos

I've been busy working on a Recipe mini. It's no where near done. Still constructing the pages. After that I'll need to gather all the recipes that my mother has that I love to eat. It'll be nice to have all of my favorites in one single recipe book. I did debate on making a seperate book for desserts but yea. Having them all in one place is probably better off for me in the long run. hehe

I am also super busy editing photos that I want to scrap. Well, editing them and sifting through the mass amount of them that I have. This in itself is a job all of its own! I didn't realize just how many pictures I had. Oh! I was wondering, do a lot of you ladies (And gents) print out your own pics or do you get them printed at a store? If so, what store? OR do you use an online service that prints and ships?I am trying to find some place that will print out some nice quality pictures.
